Tomorrow America celebrates the election of its first black (ok, partially black) President.  Tomorrow I celebrate the fact that the Obama Administration only has 100 days until it must start to take responsibility for their actions during the previous administration. The failure to reign in GSEs such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which rests not only with Democrats but with Republicans as well, being one of them. The Housing Bubble has burst, just like the S&L bubble and the dot-com bubble.  But, unlike these previous economic slow-downs, turn-downs, recessions or whatever you want to call it, there has been no quick rebound, such as the one seen after the dot-com bubble burst or after 911.  Why?  Not pointing any fingers, but certain political groups do not want the economy to make a comeback unless they can be seen as the driving force behind such a recovery.  How do they do this?  By allowing fear and panic to remain in the public's mind as long as possible, by telling everyone that it will not get better unless they do something drastic, like spending billions of dollars.  What's worse is that some of those who are now our "saviors" are directly or indirectly responsible for the current economic situation.

Please, for a moment, set aside political idealism and party affiliation and look at the facts.  The economy did quite well under President Clinton.  Much praise for Clinton has been branded about by certain people as of late (no one on this forum, my boss loved Clinton), but the fact that for six of his eight years in office the Congress was controlled my a majority of Republicans seems to elude some.  George W Bush had large shoes to fill after beating (or cheating, who cares) Al Gore.  He came into office with an economy that was slumping due to various factors and eventually lost a great deal of momentum after 911.  But, the economy rebounded and did quite well for some time afterward, it did not climb to Regan-esque or Clintonian levels, but it wasn't slumping as bad as it was right after 911.  Then, the midterm elections came about and many Republicans were voted out of office in favor of Democrats.  And now after six years of a majority Democrat Congress we are at the brink, if you believe the hype, of another Great Depression.  And What can save us?

Only two things Regan-esque economic decisions or another World War.  FDR didn't save us with the New Deal, WWII is what pulled the US out of the Great Depression.  And Jimmy Carter's horrific fiscal polices were only rectified by a Reganomics.

You have 100 days Mr. President.  You have 100 days Speaker Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Reid. You have 100 days Team Obama.  Make them count, enjoy them, because in 101 days you must all stand up and take responsibility for what you, and some of your fellow Congressmen/women  and Senators from across the aisle have done to this country and our economic future.

Let's take a look at what Barack's first, and only, term of President will be like....

Baracks politics of change.... yeah right.  He selected Ron Emmanuele for Chief of Staff. Thats change we can all beleive in right?  Change to what, another Clinton?  If he really wanted to change things, why not some new faces? 

Under the guise of "tax cuts" for "the poor" Barack will raise taxes.  "But he said he would cut taxes..."  Yeah, he said that when he was trying to get your vote, and after he did he said that "We're all gonna have to make sacrifices..."  You heard the man.  By either raising taxes outright or by letting the Bush Tax Cuts sunset Barack, and the other Democraps will raise EVERYONE'S taxes.  And please, dont say that he said that it wasnt raising taxes... what he said was "It will be like going back to tax rates under President Clinton."  That my friends is a tax increase, not a tax cut.  But, people view the Clinton years as one of the greatest periods of economic security, and therefore Clinton tax levels are a good thing.....  Bush tax levels are even lower on almost ever socio-economic group, but I guess that isn't good enough for some of us.  Oh, by the way, how exactly does one cut taxes for someone who doesnt really pay taxes?  Does that make sense to anyone?  If it does, please stop drinking the kool-aid, its bad for you and creates a negative sterotype....  What this "tax cut" really ammounts to is another government hand out, aka WELFARE.

Do you like conservative talk radio?  You might want to get in as much of it as you can....  Baracks's appointee to the FCC will most likely team up with the other Democraps on the board to inforce the Fairness Doctrine, which is "supposed" to give equal time to opposing political view points.  Of course we wont see "equality" in the MSM, and any we do will not be truly equal.  It is conservative talk radio that we have to worry about and the internet and sites just like Townhall.com.  Hopefully if the unFairness Doctrine gets passed then they will have to take everything as a whole, not individual shows and websites.  If not then at least HuffingtonPost will have to let some real conservatives post articles, not neocon solialist freaks like the ones on the staff...  And maybe if elRushbo is kicked off the air he'll go to XM and gve all of his regualr listeners a free subscription...

Barack will surpass Hitler as the man responsible for the most deaths. "How?"  By passing the Freedom of Choice Act wich will surpass Roe v Wade as the national defenition of a legal abortion.  The Freedom of Choice Act will completely undo all of the hard work done by the pro-life movement.  It will make it unconstitutional for states to pass laws that deny a "woman's right to choose".  It will end bans on partial birth abortions and overturn abortion limits across the board.  Abortions will not be "legal, safe, and rare."  They will be common and still as dangerous as ever, all they will be is LEGAL.

Affirmative action...  Many think that this is now a deunked theory because we elected Barack, a black man, to the office of President of the United States.... if only that were true.  While listening to one of my favorite talk shows today I heard a comment from the host's assistant or engineer or whatever (a black man, BTW) say that it isnt over because Barack is half white.  This will be the argument from now on.  You should all be prepared to have to defend yourselves if you say something like "afirmative action is pointles now because we have a black giuy in the white house."  You'll get an answer like "He's not black, he's half black.  His white half is what got him elected."  one of my co-workers, a young black male said that Barack wasn't black, "he's a mutt."  Under Barack affirmative action will probably get worse.

National security.... The Kenyans already EXPECT a lot out of their brother Barack.  LOL.  Joe the VP stated that a generated international crisis will occur within 6 months of Barack taking office and the President of Afghanistan has laready said that he hopes President Obabma will help put and end to civilian casualties in Afghanistan...  Barack will jerk US troops out of Iraw so fast it'll make the camels' heads spin and then its a sitting duck.  If the Iranians try to invade again the Iraqis wont be able to stop them.  Then we have an even larger enemy to deal with, after all, iran "is only a tiny country" unless it makes territorial aquisitions such as Iraq, which pust it a lot, lot close the Saudia Arabia......   If Russia goes crazy and invades another country what do you think Barack's gonna do?  Stand up to them the way a Ronald Reegan would? no, hell probably just tell both sides to calm down.

All in all Barack is going to devestate this country.  i dont have the time to get into the economic problems he wil lcause if he lives up to half his campaign promises or go more in depth into certain other things, but hes going to go down as the worst president in history.... He's gonna make Bush look like JFK...

I had someone tell me earlier tonight that they think that all necessities should be socialized: electric, water, health care, etc.  The scarier part is that this person doesn't care how much of their money goes to the government in taxes as long as it helps someone because "there are people who can not or will not help themselves..."  For another American to say that to me is deeply disturbing, this is supposed to be the land of opportunity where anyone who is willing to work can be successful.  Even after I said that socialism doesn't work on  a large scale, which has been proven time and time again (think the USSR and China before the realized that they needed some capitalism to make the system work) this person said that it was because of... survey says GREED!

I'm sorry, but greed is not always bad.  Greed drives business, greed is the basis for competition, because lets face it, when it comes to business the scoreboard doesn't record touchdowns and PAT's it records profits and profit margins.  If I had had $50,000 to invest in any company during the second fiscal quater I would have bought stock in Wal-Mart before I would Exxon-Mobile.  Why?  Because, Wal-Mart may have had a lower quaterly profit, but they had a much larger profit margin and therefore a much better chance a business longevity... But I digress.

Let's take a look at Barack's tax plans one more time (lets also keep in mind that I am a college drop out and when I was going it was for Film, not business, not polysci)  BHO plans to increase corporate taxes, increase SSI taxes, increase the death tax, capital gains (except for small businesses), "cut" taxes for 95% of Americans, raise taxes for those making over $250,000, and "renegotiate NAFTA and other trade agreements.

Who pays coporate taxes?  A) Corporations.  B) Consumers. C) The Tax Fairy.  The answer is B, Consumers.  How?  Corportaions pass these taxes on to consumers through price increases.  But what if people stop buying their products or using their services?  Then these companies layoff or fire employees to help keep their costs lower and offset the corporate tax rates.  Which country has one of the highest corporate tax rates in the world?  The United States.

Social Security Insurance was origionaly started as a way to get older citizens to reitre earlier and let younger workers become part of the work force.  The system started in a deficit; an entire generation of people who had never contribted to the system were now drawing from it.  Several economist and other analysts have predicted that anyone currently undr the age of 35 will not be able to draw SSI benefits when they are of retirment age.  People are living longer and therefore drawing SSI longer and a system that started in the negative will soon be bankrupt..

How exactly does one cut taxes for people who dont pay taxes to begin with?  Thats not a tax cut, thats a welfare check.  And raising taxes on the top 5% of earners is "fair" its "patriotic" that's bull malarkey.  The top 5% of earners shoulder 70% of the tax burden and now they (the liberals) expect them to take on more. How is that fiar?  They earned that money.  They are the ones who worked for that money.  Why should others get some of thier hard earned money for doing nothing?  These are the people who own small businesses.  Small businesses employ 70% of Americans....  Most small business owners report their comapny's profit as personal income.  What happens if their taxes go up?  They cut jobs.

The net effect of all these things is that unemployment will be higher, tax revenues will be lower and the economy will go from recession to depression.  Can we risk four moe years of a bad economy?  No.  So, if we cant afford four more years, who should we vote for? "Bush 3" as the liberals call JMac or Barack who will make Bush look like Regan or Clinton?  I'm not going to tell you how to vote, that's up to you as an individual to do what you think is right.  I will say that after the election, one way or the other some of us will regret our decsion... I don't think i'll be the least be regretful and i hope others dont have to regret their choice....
